Damn you cleartemp!!! Help please!

:mad: Im soo pissed off right now.
So here is the situation. I'm hoping that I can quickly find help for the battle that me and my AT&T Tilt WM 6.1 are going through.

The name of the war -

CLEARTEMP ERASED EVERYTHING!!!!

So im at work on my office phone when my Tilt (which was in my holster on my hip) started vibrating... in three buzzes. I thought it was a message so I didnt answer right away.

5 minutes later I take out my phone to see who sent me a message but for some reason instead of seeing the S2U2 screen there was a "are you sure you want to?" block asking if i wanted to erase one of my programs because it was a unistalled registry, so the first thing i did was say no...... IT DID THAT FOR ABOUT 28 TO 30 DIFFERENT PROGRAMS!!!

Afterwards I exited out of Cleartemp to see if the programs were still on my phone but to my surprise not only were all of my programs gone but my storage card was completely erased and their was no settings folder and the only thing left in the programs folder was Games, tool box, file explorer and that fu3kin Media net.

I would have simply hard reset and used my sprite backup but there was no settings folder to get to the hard reset and my storage card was wiped completely clean.

so now i cant even hard reset and start from the ground up.

What can i do?
THANKS IN ADVANCE for taking the time to scratch your head in curiosity with me.

I would appreciate anyones help in helping me get through this War!!!

Yeah man ClearTemp F'ed up my phone once too! Not nearly as bad as yours though, sorry to hear that.

ANyways, just hard reset using your soft keys and stylus. To do this, hold down your 2 soft keys they ones with the little horizontal dash on them the ones above the IE and mail icon buttons.

So push and hold those in with two fingers of one hand,

then with your other hand hit the soft reset button with your stylus.

Release the soft reset button and keep pressing the soft keys.

When the "This operation will delete all your personal data, to manufacturer default" appears on screen.

Press Green call button to restore manufacturer default,

or press Red call button to cancel.

I had the same thing happen to me as well a week back, but fortunately I had just gotten a new card,so I recopyed all the info off my old card onto my new one... Im not sure why clear temp does that... but I dont want to use it again.. it has problems.
Hope you can restore it all the same!

I had the same problem lost a lot of mp3s and also my backups that were in the SD!! i was fortunate to find some old backup file and a SD card mirror folder on my computer and restored all, now i make sure i have both my internal storage and SD card copied to my computer.

Same issue. I ran cleartemp, my phone froze. I rebooted it and my storage card was corrupted. I lost most of the stuff on it. No more cleartemp for me, I now manually clean up shit.

Ditto. :(

Can anyone suggest any alternative auto-cleanup apps?

Theres a reason they call it flash-storage...
Never ever use SD/MMC/CF/USB Memstick/Other Flash-style-media for critical information or backups...

On another note I have been using cleartemp for nearly a year in a cooked rom and have never had a problem.
